Home to some of the most powerful nuclear missile systems in the world, Montana played an indispensable role in the war against Communism. Utilizing the Lend-Lease pipeline, Soviet spies ferried stolen nuclear and industrial secrets, loaded in diplomatic pouches, from Great Falls to the Soviet Union. Army nurse Lieutenant Diane Carlson served as an angel of mercy at the Pleiku Evacuation Hospital in the Central Highlands in Vietnam. Young Montana smokejumper Hog Daniels joined the CIA' s secret war in Southeast Asia, becoming the principal advisor to General Vang Pao in his desperate fight against Communists. Captain Ken Robison (U. S. Navy, Ret. ), award-winning author and Cold Warrior, reveals tales of Montanans who made their mark on this titanic struggle.
